I thought bezos was playing a trick on me today - my new book is now beating @RyanHoliday's for top spot on Amazon in business & self-improvement. don't even know what to say. the guy has been a huge inspiration for me over the years. I don't consider myself anywhere near his level. while there's no chance it'll last... I'll take it!

this recap of my 1hr claude code session w Adam Tank (@artank) is just frikkin perfect "I'll be damned if my jaw didn't hit the desk the first time I saw the output." -- @artank After one hour, we'd built a custom tool that writes his newsletter in his voice two months later, he's building...everything. a mushroom foraging site, a morel finder app, a linkedin visualizer, sales analyzer, and more he wrote about it here and the whole thing is worth a read: adamtank.com/new-blog/2026/…

Is there a marketplace for prebuilt @claudeai skills? I'm probably not looking in the right place... it has to exist right?

Couldn’t agree more. @niravtolia has the right mindset and actively listens to his customers (check my short thread linked below). I am shocked the market isn’t seeing the value here - no debt, active user base, incredible data set, and sooo much room to run on improving UI/UX and ad spend. No doubt in my mind they’ll be in the ~$20 range before too long if they aren’t acquired or go private first. x.com/artank/status/…

Why is listening not taught as skill? Is there anyone doing it as a profession? Feels like something that should be in super high demand, like Toastmasters but for learning how to listen.

I'm looking for a word for "get it-ness." Something to describe that sense you get of a person that "gets it." Usually immediately apparent. contenders that are close but not quite it: awake. in the details/close to the metal. high-agency.

There is insatiable demand for super-premium experiences. It doesn’t seem like there’s any real limit to what people will pay for something that feels singular. "Rich people are asking for more and more because they can get everything, so they want something even more special. In the Super Bowl, go to Tiffany's, get a blue football, get a lecture from Peyton Manning, walk on the field pregame and come out with a team. And for that I'm going to pay $300,000. In every category there's premiums and people pay crazy."

With 2026 coming up, it might be an interesting exercise to start PLANNING BACKWARDS to whatever goal you might have in the next 5 years. There's a bazillion ways to plot out a goal, but one way is WORKING BACKWARDS to figure out the amount of money you wanna make.

People talk about looksmaxxing but you should be serendipitymaxxing: Get outside more often, try that new thing, say hi to the person next to you on the plane, ask a stranger if you can sit next to them for coffee, go eat alone at that restaurant you want to try, walk in a new place every day for a month, wear the outfit you’ve been afraid is too bold - and compliment someone else on theirs, explore a new city, explore your own city with new eyes, compliment a stranger with no expectations in return, ask someone older than you to tell you one of their favorite life stories, reach out to someone you haven’t talked to in a while just to say you’re thinking of them, go to a new grocery store and start a conversation with someone in every aisle. The quality of your life is directly linked to how many unplanned positive encounters you have.

I am unreasonably excited about self-driving. It will be the first technology in many decades to visibly terraform outdoor physical spaces and way of life. Less parked cars. Less parking lots. Much greater safety for people in and out of cars. Less noise pollution. More space reclaimed for humans. Human brain cycles and attention capital freed up from “lane following” to other pursuits. Cheaper, faster, programmable delivery of physical items and goods. It won’t happen overnight but there will be the era before and the era after.

@niravtolia - as a bullish shareholder and frequent-ish user of Nextdoor, here are my challenges with the app & product recommendations that can significantly improve user engagement & monetization metrics for $nxdr. 🧵 1. YOU’RE NOT LOCAL ENOUGH It’s somewhat ironic, but the fact that ‘Nextdoor’ connects me with people who live over 30 miles away from me, and not people who actually live next door to me, is frustrating. I want to be able to create filters to show me content, stuff for sale, and local businesses that are all within a short (5-10 min.) drive or walk from my home. A feature that allowed me to connect with my actual neighbors (and not just people that live in my city/surrounding suburbs) to help us organize community garage sales, swap tools, organize block parties, etc. would create a ton of value for me and also help me build meaningful IRL relationships. There are a ton of ways to accomplish this from a UI/UX pov that shouldn’t be hard to implement as you already have the data. 2. I HAVE VERY LITTLE INCENTIVE TO OPEN THE APP ON A DAILY/REGULAR BASIS The notification system aside, the only time(s) I think about opening the app that create value for me are when I’m looking for recommendations on a local product or service - or want to review recommendations on someone I’m considering - and when im looking for info on an emergency or hyperlocal content (construction, as an example) that is likely only found from ppl posting on the app. HOWEVER - I religiously open & read every single newsletter that I subscribe to related to local topics, and one in particular that surfaces all of the events near me for that day. If there was an events tab where Nextdoor curated all of the events happening near me each day, I’d open it every morning, just like the daily paper. I know you’re expanding big into publishing with partnerships with local papers/journalists, so maybe this is on the horizon… but this is the single biggest feature improvement you could make that would IMMEDIATELY change my usage behaviors in a positive way. 3. CONTENT FILTERING IS A MESS You certainly know that the brand of Nextdoor is largely ‘the app for ‘Karen’s’ who complain about gunshots vs fireworks, unhinged political takes, etc. I actually don’t think the issue is that people post that stuff, it’s more that I have no way of filtering it out and not seeing it without a ton of manual work. A forums-like feature would be a good fit here. Separated by topic (similar to reddit, or hell, Craigslist) would be soooo helpful. Instead of a stream of consciousness from randos on my feed, I’m hit with a list of topics I could create or choose to subscribe to that are relevant to me. Note that Craigslist doesn’t have a feed - and has been successful over the years simply being a place for people to see exactly what they want and nothing more. The approach obviously has downsides for discoverability of content and time in app, but it creates less frustration and headaches for the user and I believe will over time improve engagement and retention metrics. Of course you could use AI to sort & categorize posts, which I believe you’re doing, which maybe as a simple intermediate step solves some of the problem. But I still need a way to better engage with topics relevant to me, or at least remove keywords I don’t want to see in my feed (fireworks, gunshots, lost dog/cats, etc.) unless I searched for them. 4. ADS ARENT WORKING FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES… but there’s still a ton of value for them I’ve spoken to many businesses who utilize nextdoor to find leads, and every one of them, without exception, spent money on nextdoor ads with no return and stopped spending money… but get TREMENDOUS return when they post from their personal account OR a nextdoor user writes a review of their business. So they have no incentive to spend money to grow their business bc they get better return with organic posts… This could be solved with something as simple as an algorithm update, or something more complicated with the backend targeting strategy (which I know you’re working to improve in addition to self serve…)- but either way their needs to be better incentive for companies to spend money on Nextdoor. —————- I firmly believe the future of content and information is local, and that the well-being of our society depends on authentic, genuine relationships with our neighbors. Nextdoor has a huge role to play in that and is in the best position, IMO, to make it happen. Best of luck with the transformation and thank you for your leadership - hope this was helpful!u
